Answer
Las líneas 10-12 contribuyen principalmente al significado del poema al mostrar lo convencionales y poco originales que son los mensajes en una postal. Por lo tanto, la respuesta correcta es la **1**. Estas líneas describen frases típicas que se encuentran en las postales, como "Lo estamos pasando de maravilla" y "Ojalá estuvieras aquí". Esta convencionalidad contrasta con la idea de un soneto tradicional, estableciendo la idea de que la postal, a pesar de su brevedad, es la forma moderna americana de este tipo de poesía. La opción 2 es incorrecta porque el poema se centra en el emisor, no en el receptor. La opción 3 es incorrecta porque, aunque alude a los sentimientos del receptor, no es la contribución principal de estas líneas. La opción 4 es incorrecta porque el poema no argumenta la superioridad de la postal, sino que la presenta como una forma moderna de expresión poética.
